Match Notes A month ago, Everton would have approached this game expecting to win.

After a couple of injuries, however, and with Norwich unbeaten in six - fresh from victory over Manchester United, anything could happen.

The visitors have only conceded two goals in that period, an achievement made possible by the form of goalkeeper John Ruddy, the ex Evertonian who was allowed to leave Goodison Park for a nominal fee in 2010.

Betting: Home 4-9, Away 6-1, Draw 3-1.

Stat of the game: Everton need four goals to become the seventh team to score 1,000 goals in the Premier League.
